new change is the name of the street

Got to check out One New Change yesterday, a week after it opened as London's newest shopping centre, and the first proper one in the City. It doesn't have heaps of shops, but it would be just enough for a lunchtime whip around, which is of course the whole point. It looks pretty boring from the outside but is pretty cool inside which is where all these photos are taken. A major drawcard will be the food, with Jamie Oliver opening Barbecoa, an homage to meat, right across from a new Gordon Ramsey that is yet to come. Barbecoa is open now, and I did quite like the look of the menu if I ever had some poundage burning a hole in my pocket and I felt like a steak. In the meantime, we went to Byron for burgers and I got a proper hamburger with beetroot on it! They are only for a limited time though, as part of Movember which is an Australian fundraising event that has been adopted in the UK. Hence, the Aussie hamburger. It was thoroughly enjoyable.

They have a Topshop, Mango, Reiss, Banana Republic, Karen Millen, Office and Dune all with quite workwear-oriented stock, plus a couple of outdoorsy-stores like North Face which I didn't quite get. Is that what city workers do on the weekends? Mountain climbing?

Welcome

This blog is a bit of a mish-mash of fashion and style posts, as well as tidbits about my life, my loves, my friends, and my travels. Plus anything else that I think is interesting or funny or pretty and want to share with you. I am learning the ropes with this blog, so hopefully I can add and improve things as I figure out more about this wonderful world of technology!

About Me

Finally back in London, still flat broke, hoping to get my life back to normal soon. I love fashion way too much, I'm indecisive and forgetful, and breakfast is my favourite meal of the day! I watch trashy teen flicks, hate coffee, and love dancing, but only when nobody's watching ;-P
